about FIBAA

The  Foundation for International Business Administration Accreditation (FIBAA) was founded in 2002 to accredit schools of business. Since the launch of the European Bologna Process, along with the transition to bachelor's and master's programs and the growing independence available to higher education institutions (HEIs) in designing their degree programs, the call for the HEIs to establish and advance sound and transparent quality assurance systems has grown continuously.

When the accreditation system was established in Germany, FIBAA was founded in 1994 and hence became one of the first agencies to be accredited by the German Accreditation Council. Since 2002, it has been entitled to award the Seal of the Accreditation Council for degree programs in Germany. The FIBAA is organized as a non-profit organization and is headquartered in BonnNorth Rhine-WestphaliaGermany.

The FIBAA Foundation Council is the leading board of the foundation. It defines and represents the common interests of the founders and decides on the economic and strategic baselines of FIBAAs work. The FIBAA Foundation Council assures that FIBAAs mission is well-established in society and its institutions and promotes FIBAAs overall values of transparency, quality and internationality in the field of higher education.
